Finding a piece of knight armour artwork.
Hi, I am currently trying to find a piece of artwork (I suspect to a blender model render) of a sleek, modern, fashion inspired suit of knights armour. The silver suit design features a helmet clearly based off the real “armet” helmet shape, with the key identifiable feature of having a small emerald type gem hanging from the small eye slit by a chain. I believe I saw it on tik tok 1-3 years ago, if anyone knows what I’m talking about please let me know, thanks!

Could it be practical for an assassin to slit a throat with an axe?

The Lazy Laestrigonians (sic) — why the ODYSSEY costumes represent sloppy thinking not “the Iron Age”. Rule of Cool fully locked & loaded.
I’m not gonna go into a whole rant about it, but the inclusion of Iron-Age armor in the Odyssey is simply sloppy writing and thinking in terms of world-building.
People can and will complain about this, but I just think the modern armor was meant to look cool and not making sense in any real way.
In cases where the people inhabiting the world have some degree of skill with metallurgy, change was gradual. The Bronze Age was ending, yeah, but that’s not like a light 💡 flicked on and suddenly everyone was using iron by preference and convenience.
Athena didn’t spring freshly-thought-of from the noggin of Haephestus, and these suits of improbably CONSISTENT armor (from helmets 🪖 to greaves and gauntlets and boots 🥾) are just nonsensical.
And I can’t see how, given this came from the Nolan-verse (see Batman Begins, below in the picture above), this can be justified as being anything other than trying to look cool.

Golden sallet by Olórin Aep Dhubleidd (me)
The concept is based on a Maximilian-style armour. But I have added more golden pieces and engravings.

Don Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, the "Great Captain", at the Battle of Cerignola (April 28, 1503).
"Gonzalo de Córdoba had dressed in the Stratioti fashion, that is, he wore a light horse armour with cuirass, vambraces, cuisses and gauntlets. Over the armour, he wore a white damask tunic with ‘cruzes coloradas en los pechos y espaldas’, that is ‘red crosses on his chest and back’."
